MLS is back... to taking on criticism.
The 2025 MLS season kicked off with plenty of drama, most notably highlighted by San Diego FC’s stunning debut win against the 2024 MLS Champions. The new expansion club managed to pull off one of the most shocking opening weekend results in recent memory, defeating defending champions LA Galaxy at their home turf. There’s a new team in town, California.
Hold your horses, Inter Miami.
As Major League Soccer continues to grow in both popularity and market value, several franchises have emerged as the most valuable in 2025.
With the arrivals of top players to the league, as well as the emergence of new expansion clubs and numerous investments from the 30 teams in MLS, club-values have skyrocketed in the last decade, with multiple teams in the United States becoming some of the most valuable in Latin America.
Football Reference (Fbref.com) released their 2024 statistics for the most-viewed soccer team pages by state and it’s evident that a Gooner takeover has happened.
American soccer fans were most interested in five Premier League teams, several local Major League Soccer clubs and three National Women’s Soccer League teams. The one outlier was West Virginia who loved Real Madrid in 2024.
Last year Arsenal were the most-viewed club in 11 states and D.C. This time around Arsenal dominated the map with 28 STATES. Arsenal would’ve won the electoral college with this map.

The new Inter Miami Dolphins jersey was revealed on Tuesday as one of five new Major League Soccer Archive Collection kits. All five of the new third kits are beautiful, but Miami’s has caught the most attention.
Matching the same colors as the NFL’s Miami Dolphins, Lionel Messi and company will have the option of wearing aqua, orange and white for the rest of the 2024 season and 2025. The “MIAMI” font on the front is a nod to the 80’s show “Miami Vice.”
These are stunning.

The Portland Timbers secured a 4-2 victory Wednesday night but not before trailing 2-0 at halftime and having a hot mic fail with the broadcast.
The Timbers have been uncharacteristically poor this season. Heading into the game vs. San Jose Earthquakes they were without a win in their previous nine games. Yes, it had been two months since Portland secured three points from a game.
The U.S. Open Cup just gave us another showing of why all American clubs should continue competing against each other. Cough, cough, MLS.
This week saw the return of the fan-favorite Lamar Hunt U.S. Open Cup with teams from the USL League One/Two, NISA and MLS Next Pro competing in the first round of the tournament.
